Introduction



When you’re working with plastic fabricators, the difference between in-house and outsourced production can make or break your project. At S&D Solutions, we fabricate and assemble everything in-house, using a wide range of plastics and production methods, all backed by over 20 years of hands-on experience.




Why In-House Fabrication Matters



Keeping fabrication under one roof gives us:


  • More control over quality

  • Faster turnaround times

  • Better communication between design, production, and installation

  • The flexibility to pivot quickly when challenges arise



We don’t rely on third-party fabricators. That means you get direct communication, better pricing, and more reliable results.




What Materials Do We Work With?



We fabricate using:


  • Acrylic – great for clarity, impact resistance, and display items

  • Polycarbonate – ideal for machine guarding and safety panels

  • PETG – strong, food-safe, and flexible

  • PVC – reliable and durable for industrial uses

  • ABS – tough, lightweight, and good for forming or welding



Need help choosing? Our team will recommend the best plastic for your application.




What Can We Fabricate?



We build everything from:


  • Simple flat panels and guards

  • CNC-cut components and shaped parts

  • Multi-part enclosures for medical, industrial, or commercial use

  • One-off replacements or full production runs



We can take your technical drawings, CAD files, or even a quick sketch and turn them into something you can actually use.




Assembly Services



We don’t just cut and send raw parts; we also assemble your build for you. This includes:


  • Solvent bonding (clear and strong joins)

  • Plastic welding (for structural applications)

  • Fixings and mechanical joins

  • Finishing (polishing, de-burring, etc.)



Whether it’s a POS display, a medical cabinet, or a custom housing, we ensure all parts work together and arrive ready to install or use.
